We show that it is not possible to approximate the minimum Steiner tree problem within 1 + 1 162 unless RP = NP. The currently best known lower bound is 1 + 1 400. The reduction i...
The problem of selecting nodes in unranked trees is the most basic querying problem for XML. We propose stepwise tree automata for querying unranked trees. Stepwise tree automata c...
We survey results on self-organizing data structures for the search problem and concentrate on two very popular structures: the unsorted linear list, and the binary search tree. Fo...
In this paper we discuss models and methods for solving the rooted distance constrained minimum spanning tree problem which is defined as follows: given a graph G = (V, E) with no...
Abstract. The rooted delay-constrained minimum spanning tree problem is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem arising for example in the design of centralized broadcasting ...
